If this blue version doesn't light your fire your woods wet. (a lot of fire & brimstone preachers like to use this line).
I've got the Fiesta but lack the ST. However where's the sale ads for the protege5 and/or 3? You have my attention.
I'm selling my Rallycross Mini and going to buy a Fiesta ST too. I'm down in Delaware. There are plenty available but no good deals....
good luck with your search!
I've great things on the FiST but some of the YouTube videos give it a weak review so where we really at in this car,

Neither car is officially up for sale at this point, until (if) I get the car that will replace them both. Neither would be up for sale at all if I didn't just acquire a Miata. Now the fleet is getting a little out of control and I need to consolidate.
Edit: here is a teaser pic of the 3

Thanks, same to you. Apparently once COVID hit, FiSTs became way less of a performance bargain.
For some reason about half of the higher mileage FiSTs have replaced motors...makes me a little wary

I sort of automatically assumed that is from people doing upgrades they really didn't understand and then driving the crap out of the car at high load. I could be wrong though
In reply to Datsun310Guy :
That's a non-US 3 door which I wish we could have gotten, but didn't.
I owned a 1st generation Fiesta from new, and finally drove a 2017 a few months ago...I must have grown as I didn't really fit in the newer car.

RedGT - I posted a little FS ad in this form on the RallyCross Mazda3. Feel frel to let me know if you have any questions.
I have a FiST fully built for STH, low miles. I love the car, but am ready to move onto something else with a cage and not street legal.

I'm not that up on all the solo classes so I'm not sure what fully built for STH would entail, but I'll send you a pm.

Pinchvalve, did you get my pm/email?
In reply to HopmanJones :
I did not. The list of mods includes:
It has -3 degrees of camber front and -2 in the back, sits a little lower (or higher if you want) and dynoed at 200hp and 300ft/lb to the wheels. Its a little stiff but the LSD allows it to pull had out of corners and it has super-strong mid-range.

Thank for the additional info, nice build list there! Would obviously take me out of stock class for sure, but it sounds like a very fun car. Can you please email me "smallfence" at the yahoo? I'm interested in finding out more info: year, miles, location, a couple pics, and the asking price. Thanks!

Pinchvalve, if you sent an email I have not received it yet.
